1. Prioritize: Why having a honeymoon is important

With all of the details, planning logistics and energy that it takes to plan your wedding, it’s easy to put your honeymoon planning on the back burner, but this is a Big Mistake many couples make. Your honeymoon isn’t just another trip, it’s actually a very important milestone in a healthy marriage that creates instant memories you will cherish forever.

Timing is everything, and that applies to honeymoon planning too! By starting to plan your honeymoon early, you increase your chances of snagging the best deals on flights, accommodations and activities. Many resorts and airlines offer early bird discounts, so take advantage of them and stretch your honeymoon budget a little further.

3. Securing the perfect honeymoon location and resort

Pre-pandemic, the old school of thought was to plan your honeymoon six to nine months before your wedding, but that isn’t the best advice anymore! Post-pandemic the best and most sought-after destination and resorts, especially for honeymooners, book up faster than ever. Starting your planning now ensures you’ll have plenty of choices when choosing your dream destination.

Every couple is unique, and so is their dream honeymoon. Starting early allows you to tailor your experience to match your preferences. Starting to plan your honeymoon early allows you to share what you BOTH hope to get out of your honeymoon.

Planning early ensures you can create an itinerary that will give you as close to everything you desire in your honeymoon as possible!
